[Q] please help i cant get into recovery mode on my gs3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i rooted my phone the first time this screen started coming up so i unrooted it to get it away but it still there how do i get rid of it

Your post show that:
-you are able to write
-you are NOT able to read

This will come up because of the flash counter on the phone, you need to buy an app called "Triangle Away" in the app store, that will solve your problem

Just beware of the model number while flashing anything from here.

Hi! as what th guy above me said, use TriangleAway. This will also remove that yellow triangle with an !
Or, if you have root now. you may flash another kernel via odin.
i hope this helps cheers!

I guess what that post meant is that you are yet another in the wrong forum .
This is the International I9300 forum .
Mods firmware from this forum may brick your non I9300 .

ok this is what i dont get.. You're smart enough to know about Xda Development Forums, you're smart enough to root and flashing your phone. However you're NOT smart enough to A) Google Bricked Vibrant (which will show you MANY MANY posts on the same topic ) B) use the search tool ??? Cmon seriously, I come here to learn and maybe help a person in need if I can or ask a question if i have done my research and still no clue.. I almost posted today on how Odin and Cappy works b/c i have one at home that i flash from time to time, but guess what? i read and found my answer.. sorry to rant.....
To Answer your question look up ODIN and viola all ur problems solved.. Next time create a backup so you can always fallback in case of a bad/non compatible Flash..
Samsung may be coy with the official Froyo, but I cannot give them enough props for making a virtually unbrickable phone.

Have a look here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487, if you want to flash the ROM yourself with Odin.
Alternatively you can try to let Kies update the firmware, if it recognizes your phone.
Or try OTA update driectly on your phone.
Good luck !
P.S.: As I like to have always the newest ROM and need root for some apps, I recommend to flash latest pre-rooted ROM from here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608071. But it's your choice.

Have a look at that noobs topics.This is the 3rd time youve helped him and its in one ear and out the other.
You post a link and he asks if he needs to be rooted.Just shows he cant be bothered reading it when it says you dont need to be rooted.
He is obviously not prepared to read the rules nor read guides in his own time.
So can someone please report him to Crachel/any moderator.

Right enniocharchar, i have locked your other 3 threads asking the same question as you are here, may i point out that you can only start one thread to ask a question, asking the same question across multiple is against XDA rules and with this question being a simple how to root your phone question a simple search would have found you all the answers needed.

If you have a galaxy s3 I9300 just flash the Siyah kernel. It will Root your device and you can make some nice adjustments in the STweaks App. Why it didn`t work with the chainfire Kernel I don`t know. What did Odin say exactly?
You could try to flash it with Odin 1.85, It`s the most common used one.

Siyah gives you more control over the Kernel, so that you can make several adjustments (like over or underclocking of the cpu, so you have better batterylife), while CF auto Root sticks to the Stock Kernel with just Root enabled.
Did you enable USB Debugging before flashing with Odin?
Yes usb debugging is on
Status normal does not necessarily mean you're not rooted.
Try and install a root app. E.g..titanium backup...

He said that Odin failed to flash CF Auto Root, so I don`t think he is rooted, if it failed to flash.

Are you sure you have the right file for your phone, and did you read and follow instructions of what to do if the root doesn't "take" first time (re-flash auto reboot unchecked/reboot recovery to trigger installation)?
georgeskhater said:

Its not obvious that's why the question was asked . Enough numptys on here with the wrong phone who flash the wrong files as they don't bother reading .
Why don't you start at the beginning and read the basic faqs and guides instead of rushing straight to bricking your phone >>First question why do you want root ???

Ok no one is rude here, but if you were familiar with the XDA Forum then you would know that there are many guys who ask questions like you do and some of them just flash random stuff that is not even intended for their phone and then come asking for help. You are not special and no one knows what experience you have with flashing something on your phone or if you even read the Chainfire thread.
Then second it`s CyanogenMod and not Cyangene mode
third: I already explained to you the difference between CF Auto Root and the Siyah kernel and if you want a kernel that saves battery then flash the Siyah kernel and make adjustments to your CPU/GPU, there are enough tutorials in here on how to achieve greater battery life with a kernel that supports adjustments like underclocking. There are also other Kernels like Perseus that enable high customization to the Kernel that you just don`t have with a Kernel that is fully Stock.
Also did you try all the tips that we gave you?
- Turn everything off that has to do with Kies
- Download Odin 1.85 and use it instead of Odin 3.07
- make sure you have USB Debugging on

If you want help I suggest you answer the questions I placed in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40429120
Secondly, as already stated, nothing is obvious....if you want people like me to help you then I suggest you just answer the questions so I can eliminate potential problems
In this forum I have seen 3 cases of wrong kernel flashes in the last 48 hours alone
If you can't help me to eliminate potential problems for you then I won't bother to help, simple.......so please answer the two questions that I posted

[Q] bootloader locked or not?

my question is simple how to know if my bootloader is locked or not ? i need it to be unlocked so i can root it using this :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273&highlight=root+samsung+galaxy+s3&page=55
i have another question is cwm recovery working for 4.1.2 jb devices and where to get it? if not what's the alternative?
Stop.
Don't do anything else to your phone before you go and read ALL the stickies in the general forum.
You need to understand the basics and backup your efs folder before you destroy your phone.
Please don't start new threads for questions that have been answered a hundred times before and are all in the faq.

I read the OP thats why i am asking to make sure .
btw I9300 bootloader is not locked but do read the stickies as it is a different device than all american and several other sgs3 variants
okok no need to kill me i learned my lesson READ the stickies before posting stupid question!!
i scoured this place but i cant find a way to know the bootloader status i found out that xoom is locked and some xperia devices and that i can determine the bootloader status by the time it take on the boot screen but this doesnt sound very accurate is there a code to put it in the dial pad ?
Bootloader is irrelevant, it's a separate operating system that plays no part in recovery or rom.

if the bootloader is locked the chance of bricking my phone is bigger so i need to know first before jumping into the customizing process isnt that right?
You're trying to find something that doesn't exist, confusing completely different handsets with Samsung's open approach.

actually the verizon sgs3 does have a locked bootloader. so it is not always the manufacturer that makes the decisions. in the us the carriers have much more input especially in regards to updates. att just recently began updates to 4.12.
have a look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756338 they are all samsung galaxy s 3 but none are identical . some are exynos , some are snapdragon. ram , video boards, radios all different variants. that is why it is important to know your device
All the US versions are the same hardware... Besides Radio related stuff...

you have posted the same thread twice, I don't think that is going to change anything. most likely a moderator will eliminate one of them. you had 231 views and only 2 people attempt to help.
did you try my suggestion of posting in the sub forum in the general area? I really think you have a better chance of a response there. as I said in your other thread, I read of others who had similar problems. cant do it for you, you have to help yourself first. I understand your frustrated, but a second post in same area will not fix your problem.
